Ok……

Although she was a little reluctant, Serabelle had to admit that Xiaolan was right.

After all, there are precedents.

The main reason is that after finishing work in the afternoon, it is almost time to make dinner. And because it has just been a short time since Xiaolan finished work, her whole body is still in the state of cooling down and calming down. If she puts on clothes at this time, it will easily make a mess inside.

So when Xiaolan was cooking dinner, she was not wearing any clothes, only the apron that Kisaki Eri used to wear.

With her clothes thin and her back door open, it would be easy for overtime to start if she was in a cramped place like the kitchen with Serabelle.

By then, I don’t know how long it will take to prepare dinner, which was originally scheduled to be prepared in an hour.

buzz~

buzz~

At this moment, not only the phone in Serabelle's hand, but also Xiaolan's phone beside her vibrated at the same time.

A text message notification dropped from the top of the phone screen, and the title of the preview content was [Arrangements for the opening ceremony of the vacuum superconducting maglev train from July 23rd to July 24th].

"It's an official notification, so the notification tone on my phone just now should also be..."

Xiaolan was slightly stunned, and before Serabelle could make any move, she had already tapped her fingertips on the preview area.

The next second, the complete text message content unfolded on the screen.

In theory, it is very impolite to check other people's text messages like this, but considering that these are official text messages, and Xiaolan is a girlfriend, she also has this right.

The official arrangements in the text message were quite simple and clear.

We gathered at the lobby of Nagoya International Airport at 10:00 am on July 23rd. At 10:30 am, the WSG members arrived by flight and had a welcoming ceremony. Then at 10:45 pm, we had a physical examination at the airport hospital.

That’s all for July 23rd.

Then at 1:30 pm on July 24th, we set off from Nagoya International Airport to the vacuum superconducting maglev train station and boarded the train on time at 2:30 pm. The train departed at 3 pm and arrived in Tokyo at around 3:30 pm after 25 minutes of driving.

After arriving in Tokyo, we had an hour and a half of free time, which was basically for eating and other things, because the opening ceremony of Tokyo WSG would be held at five o'clock and would not end until eight o'clock in the evening.

It's not hard to understand, but isn't it a bit too much for a crappy opening ceremony to last from 5pm to 8pm...

Serabelle grinned slightly. He had hated this kind of formality since a long time ago.

It's not impossible to cooperate with a small formality, but sitting in jail for three hours straight is a bit of torture.

"The physical examination is at 10 a.m., so it looks like I can only go there a day earlier."

Xiaolan muttered softly, and was suddenly stunned.

Then she turned sideways and looked at Serabelle behind her, narrowing her eyes and speaking.

"By the way, has Miss Hongye already gone to Nagoya?"

"Oh, yes……"

Serabel nodded honestly, but at the same time she couldn't help feeling a little confused as to why Xiaolan mentioned Ooka Momiji at this time.

"Oh wow~ So that's how it is."

Xiaolan's eyes became more and more unfriendly.

"So, will the situation like last time in Singapore happen again?"

"Singapore's situation? What kind of..."

Serabelle stopped talking halfway through, and finally realized that Xiaolan was referring to what Sister Mary did in Singapore before.

For example, after booking a bunch of rooms, he would grab the one closest to him.

But that's unlikely this time.

Judging from what Hongye said before she left, it was obvious that the Ooka family did not give her much room to maneuver this time. Otherwise, with Ooka Hongye's personality, she would have taken the initiative to find a hotel in Tokyo to stay in.

"Well, even if that's the case, it's not a big deal~"

Xiaolan then smiled gently.

"There will always be a way when the time comes."

Chapter 814 Zhenchun: You’re having a party without me, right?

The two of them stayed in bed like this for nearly an hour, and didn't get up until almost five in the evening.

Xiaolan started to finish cooking, and Serabelle was sent home.

Of course, although it’s called home, it’s actually only two steps away.

When Serabelle opened the door and stepped into the foyer, the air in the living room was filled with a faint aroma of food, and the sound of cooking came from the direction of the kitchen.

As expected, Sister Mary was cooking dinner.

A certain girl with tiger teeth was like a big cat waiting for dinner, crawling on the sofa with her mobile phone in her arms, looking lazy, and her tail was just sticking out from behind her butt and wagging in the air.

Seeing Serabelle coming back, Sera Masumi put down his phone and his eyes lit up. He turned over swiftly and jumped off the sofa. As usual, he ran up to the boy and gave him a big hug from the front, then started to smell his body.

"Hmm~ Brother, why did you come back so late? Didn't you say that the press conference would be over after lunch? Didn't you go shopping with Miss Hongye in the afternoon? I sniff sniff..."

"Don't think about it. No matter how much you smell, you won't be able to tell the smell."

Looking at the girl's appearance, Serabelle couldn't help but hold her forehead slightly.

I can only say that there is nothing wrong with the canine teeth. It is really like a large cat. It is always rude to outsiders and can be considered warm and cheerful at best, but it is very selfish at home.

Well, actually it’s nothing, but at least be considerate of Sister Mary, she’s still here…

Just as he finished speaking, the spatula in the kitchen stopped working and Akai Mary, who had just finished cooking a dish, walked out with a plate of dinner. She couldn't help but roll her eyes when she saw the two of them cuddling together as soon as they got home.

"Majun, come down... If you really want to know where Bell went this afternoon, why not go knock on your classmate's door next door? I guess she hasn't cleaned up her room yet."

"Knock on Lan's door? Why..."

Sera Masumi suddenly paused, then she quickly turned her head and stared at Serabelle, her voice suddenly rising and her whole body became fierce.

"Well, brother, you actually came back secretly without calling me and did it with Lan next to us, right?"

"No, I didn't..."

"Just secretly!"

"But Masumi, aren't you...feeling unwell?"

Serabelle sighed helplessly and changed her words to a more euphemistic one.

"And if I go home first and then to Xiaolan's house next door after I come back, can you promise not to pester me and follow me?"

"I can guarantee that... I will follow you!"

Sera Masumi held his breath and widened his eyes.

"Besides, I just feel uncomfortable in the back, everything else is fine..."

Of course you can, sister. If you are not feeling well, just take good care of yourself.

Serabelle didn't want to listen to her nonsense anymore, and tried to look for help at Akai Mari who was about to go back to the kitchen to continue cooking dinner.

However, Akai Mari rolled her eyes and went into the kitchen without looking back.

Serabelle could only pat her butt and change the subject.

"Okay, okay, compared to this, when I went to the press conference this morning, I heard from the host that the opening ceremony will be held in two days. Are you still willing to go with me in your physical condition, Zhenchun?"

"Hmm? Oh, that, I know that. This morning, my mom and I watched the press conference live at home..."

The naive girl with tiger teeth is indeed easy to deceive. Her attention is distracted as soon as you mention it.

"But you definitely have to go. Not long after you left this morning, a courier company delivered a package to your door. It was sent by Brother Xiu from the United States. It contained two tickets for a train trial ride."

"Two?"

Serabell raised an eyebrow.

Sera Masumi spread his hands and said, "I think Hideo originally wanted to give it to me and you, after all, it's not convenient for mom to show up in public, and Hideo doesn't know that you have such a 'good' relationship with Mrs. Suzuki of the Suzuki Group."

Serabelle: "..."

Well, this too.

"So why did he send the tickets over?"

Serabel expressed that it was difficult to understand. To be honest, apart from her mother Akai Mari, he was the only person who had accompanied Masumi for the longest time since she was a child.

In comparison, although Shuichi Akai is nominally Masumi's elder brother, the two have very little contact due to work issues, even less than his second brother Hideyoshi who was adopted into the Haneda family since childhood.

But even so, he didn't feel like he owed anything to Zhenchun.

It has been like this for so many years, why has it changed inexplicably now?

Have you finally thought of making up for your sister's childhood?

"Hmm~ It seems that Brother Xiu has something he wants us to check."

As Sera Masumi said this, he lightly jumped off Serabelle, returned to the sofa, took out an envelope from under the coffee table, and poured out two train tickets and a folded piece of letter paper.

Unfold and flatten the letter paper.

Serabelle tilted her head and glanced twice, then couldn't help but let out a sound of "hmm".

“This seems to be an investigation report?”

"Well, it's about some things that happened when WSG was held fifteen years ago."

Sera Masumi concluded simply.

"I watched it twice. It seems that fifteen years ago, when the last WSG was held, some people were dissatisfied with the commercialization of WSG, so they formed a small group to launch a fierce opposition and even kidnapped sponsors. Although the kidnapped sponsors were rescued in the end, one of the sponsors was shot dead by the criminals because he tried to escape during the event."

“Against the commercialization of competition?”

Serabelle began to feel confused again.

How should I put it? It's like I can understand each word individually, but when they are put together I can't understand them.

What is commercialization? It means that one country hosts a competition, other countries send athletes to participate, and audiences from various countries come to watch the competition. All kinds of endorsements and advertisements received during the competition can be regarded as commercialization, not to mention the various incomes from food, clothing, housing and transportation brought by such a large number of participants and tourists to the host country.

Theoretically, these can all be counted as commercialization. If all of this is opposed, how can the competition be held?

Could we ask these opponents to raise money through crowdfunding? Besides, isn't it enough for a competition to be fair and just?

The logic cannot be that if you make money, you should die.

"Well, that's roughly what happened."

Sera Masumi continued.

"Then according to the report, among the several sponsors kidnapped, the first one was the head of a Japanese pastry manufacturer in Atlanta, and the second one was the head of a Chicago chaebol..."

As she listened, Serabell suddenly became startled.

Hmm? Why does this sequence sound familiar?

Chapter 815 Hongye: Already...become...

Nagoya City is located in the western part of Aichi Prefecture, Japan.

As the capital of Aichi Prefecture, Nagoya City is also the central city of the Nagoya Metropolitan Area, one of Japan's three major metropolitan areas. It used to be the castle town of Owari Tokugawa and is an important birthplace of Japanese Warring States culture in history.

And precisely because of its rich historical heritage, Nagoya is also listed as one of Japan's major tourist cities.

It was noon, and the weather was exactly the same as in the past week, with the sun shining brightly today.

After being exposed to the sun for several consecutive days, it feels like the mode has been switched directly from steaming mode to grilling mode.

In this kind of weather, walking on the streets in the city center is torture enough, not to mention walking on the beach, which is the most suitable place for a summer vacation.

Fortunately, Serabelle and her friends had a special car to pick them up.

The view changed, and under the scorching sun, three black luxury cars with the Suzuki Group logo printed on the front of the car were quietly parked in front of the main entrance of a star-rated hotel close to Nagoya Airport.

"Ms. Sera, please take your luggage."

"Oh, thank you……"

"fine."

Next to the black sedan in front of the hotel, Masumi Sera took her suitcase from the driver, who was wearing sunglasses, white gloves and a suit. She nodded politely and thanked him.
